Chapter 387

Yi Chongde and the others exchanged glances, and finally resigned themselves to telling the truth.
“Mr. Zhao…
No, Zhao Zhuqing, he has a kind of holy medicine in his hand.
Those who obtain the holy medicine, those with abilities can improve their ability level, and ordinary survivors can awaken abilities and prolong life.
Therefore, the holy medicine is highly sought after by survivors, and no one can refuse this temptation.”
Yi Chongde cowered and lowered his head, not daring to meet Lin Qianhuan’s eyes.
But the other party did not get angry, just touched his chin thoughtfully.
“Is it really that magical?”
Yi Chongde nodded frantically: “It’s true! I was the first person to inject the holy medicine, and I did awaken my ability!
Although it’s just the non-lethal promise ability, it’s still better than ordinary people, right?”
Lin Qianhuan silently looked at his slightly crazy appearance, and did not speak.
Yi Chongde immediately realized the impropriety of his behavior, smiled embarrassedly, and then obediently shrank back to his original position.
“Do you really think that the holy medicine allowed you to awaken your ability?”
Lin Qianhuan stared straight into Yi Chongde’s eyes, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.
Seeing the suspicion in her eyes, Yi Chongde nodded quickly, his eyes extraordinarily firm.
“That’s natural!
Base Chief, I would like to ask you a question presumptuously. After the great battle in Nanfeng Base, has your ability been significantly improved?”
Thinking of the rewards given by the system at that time, Lin Qianhuan nodded: “So what?”
Seeing her admit it, Yi Chongde’s eyes showed a bit of madness: “Do you know that it wasn’t just you at the time, but everyone in the Nanfeng Base who participated in the battle received the divine reward?
Ability users’ levels are improved, and ordinary people awaken their abilities. This is the effect of the holy medicine!”
Lin Qianhuan rolled her eyes speechlessly. This was clearly a reward issued by the system, but now it has become a means for the Salvation Society to control people’s hearts.
She really didn’t understand why the Salvation Society was so shameless, daring to take credit for anyone’s achievements.
“The Salvation Society sent mutated animals to attack Nanfeng Base, and after being defeated, they distributed rewards to the residents of Nanfeng Base.
Don’t you think it’s ridiculous when you hear it yourself?”
Lin Qianhuan looked at Yi Chongde sarcastically, her tone full of disgust.
But who would have thought that the other party had a devout look, putting his hands together and bowing.
“That battle was a test given to us by God, and those who pass the test will naturally receive God’s reward.
The reason why God exists is to lead mankind to keep moving forward!”
Lin Qianhuan only felt that this person seemed to have no brain: “If the Salvation Society really wants to lead mankind to progress and think for mankind, why would they send mutated animals to harm humans?
Do you know how many people in the Nanfeng Base died in the mouths of mutated animals in that battle?”
Hearing this, a trace of guilt and panic flashed in Yi Chongde’s eyes, and then he stabilized his mind.
“That’s God’s test! The weak are not worthy of receiving God’s gift!”
Lin Qianhuan opened her mouth, only feeling that these people in front of her were beyond salvation.
They have been completely brainwashed successfully, recognizing the thief as their father, and unable to distinguish between black and white.
“I want to ask you one more question, when you surrendered to Zhao Zhuqing, did you hold any special ceremonies?
For example, injecting something or taking some medicine?”
Hearing Lin Qianhuan’s question, Yi Chongde suddenly remembered something and hesitated to answer: “Yes.
At that time, Mr. Zhao shot each of us with a gun.
But it didn’t hurt, and there were no wounds, like being bitten by an ant, numb.”
Lin Qianhuan instantly grasped the key point and raised a knowing smile.
“Do you know what that gun installed in your body?”
Her words instantly made everyone vigilant. They looked at each other, hesitating slightly and shaking their heads.
Lin Qianhuan chuckled and said something that made Yi Chongde and the others’ blood run cold.
“Nanobombs.
The so-called holy medicine is just a means to deceive you.
Even Yi Chongde’s ability is fake.
The reason why those people died was not because they violated their promises, but because their lives were taken away by the Salvation Society.
The reason for doing this is to keep you in the dark forever, and let you have a virtual but very real dream.
Haven’t you all noticed that Yi Chongde is the only one who has successfully obtained and injected the holy medicine?
Because the Salvation Society can only artificially create a perfectly evolved ‘ability user’ through nanobombs.
The illusory ability of promise can completely fool you and make you free laborers.”
Lin Qianhuan was indeed scared at first, but after talking to Yi Chongde today, she suddenly realized that everything in front of her was a scam woven by the Salvation Society.
Holy medicine, ability users, prolonging life…
The Salvation Society has grasped the most desired things of ordinary survivors, so as to manipulate them and achieve the purpose of disrupting the Xiangyang Base.
Yi Chongde swallowed nervously, then shook his head frantically.
“Impossible, absolutely impossible!
I am an ability user! I awakened my ability! You are all lying to me, aren’t you!”
His expression was crazy, and his eyes were full of pain and despair.
Lin Qianhuan hooked her lips: “You should have used your ‘ability’ to demand that your subordinates not expose your name and identity in any form, right?”
Yi Chongde nodded, his eyes full of confusion and helplessness.
Lin Qianhuan shrugged slightly, raised her finger and pointed at the group of people behind him.
“But they all confessed you just now, why didn’t they die?”
At this point, everything Yi Chongde and the others had once believed in became a joke.
The so-called abilities were just being manipulated behind the scenes by the Salvation Society.
In order to make them believe it, the Salvation Society even fabricated the deaths caused by humans as deaths due to abilities.
Yi Chongde stared blankly at his hands, his fingertips trembling slightly, and his breathing became difficult.
“How could this be…
I am an ability user, I am really an ability user, I am an ability user!
I’m not an ordinary person! I awakened my ability! I really awakened my ability!
The holy medicine is real, you are lying to me, right? You are lying to me, you want me to betray God, you want God to take away the power given to me, right?
Get out! Get out of here!
Liar! You are all liars!”
He covered his head and staggered out of the tent, eventually falling into the snow.
The blizzard quickly buried him, his body gradually became numb, and the cold penetrated into his bones.
Yi Chongde’s lips moved, his voice was very weak, with extreme despair and self-deprecation.
“Extremely ridiculous.”
The snow fell silently, and his breathing gradually stopped until death.
His body was frozen stiff, and the blizzard buried his corpse and sins together, eliminating all traces of chaos.
Lin Qianhuan turned her head and glanced at the group of people huddled in the corner, holding a bowl and returning to the side of the electric pot, picking up some beef rolls.
“What else do you know about the Salvation Society?
Tell me everything, there’s no need to hide anything.”
